Chapter 283 Deal With Joshua and the Maltz Group

Anaya noticed the reluctance and compromise in Hearst's words.

She hugged Hearst and said in a low voice, "Thank you."

Anaya did not know what the future would be like.

But at least at this moment, Hearst’s trust and tolerance made Anaya feel at ease.

Anaya promised, "As long as you don't mention it yourself, I won't break up with you."

Anaya felt that it was a little hypocritical to say such words. But in order to make Hearst at ease, she still said

so.

A verbal promise might not necessarily be enough. But it would at least comfort Hearst a little.

Remember what you said today.

Hearst lowered his head and kissed Anaya's neck.

A few days ago, Hearst kissed the same place on Anaya's neck.

Now, the mark was a little faint.

Hearst sucked for a while, letting the mark reappear.

Hearst really hoped that this kiss mark would be on Anaya's neck forever.

In this case, those men who covet Anaya would know that she already had a man.

Hearst and Anaya didn’t wake up early today, so they didn't make breakfast at home. They bought breakfast

on the way and then separated.

When Anaya arrived at the company, she noticed that she had several missed calls from Ricky.

Anaya was supposed to attend the party last night. However, she fell asleep in the bathtub, which was

somewhat inappropriate.

Anaya called Ricky and explained to him.

Ricky said a few words of courtesy and invited Anaya to have dinner together tonight.

If Anaya needed it, Ricky could also share some of the movements related to the Maltz Group with her.

Techking Group had been suppressed by the Maltz Group for so long, it was impossible for Ricky to not

complain about it in his heart.

It was just that due to the involvement of various interests, Ricky did not dare to do anything to the Maltz

Group.

Since Anaya intended to deal with the Maltz Group, Ricky was naturally willing to provide her with some help.

Ricky would naturally be happy to vent his anger without letting himself get involved.

It was not difficult for Anaya to figure out Ricky's thoughts and intentions, but she did not mind it.

Anaya and Ricky had the same goal. Thus, it really didn't matter which party was using the other party.

Anaya worked overtime until the evening. After work, she directly took Tim to the appointed restaurant to meet Ricky.

When Anaya got out of the car, Ricky's car just happened to enter the parking lot.

Seeing this, Anaya stopped and waited for Ricky to stop his car.

After Anaya and Ricky met each other, they greeted each other briefly and walked into the restaurant together.

When Anaya and Ricky were waiting for the elevator, a few more people came from behind.

Joshua noticed Anaya and called out to her.

Anaya did not turn around. Joshua strode to her side and called out again, "Anaya."

Finally, Anaya shifted her gaze to Joshua. But there was almost no emotion in Anaya's eyes.

"What's the matter?"

Joshua was dissatisfied with Anaya's indifferent attitude and was about to say something. But he suddenly noticed Ricky beside Anaya, and his face darkened.

Joshua asked Anaya, "Do you and Mr. Maxwell know each other?

The Riven Group and Mr. Maxwell have some business dealings. Anaya did not deny it.

Hearing Anaya's words, Joshua immediately understood what she meant by "dealings".

The Maltz Group had been staring at OrinGame for a few months, but they still couldn't acquire OrinGame. Joshua had personally gone to the person in charge of OrinGame to discuss this matter yesterday.

However, Joshua was told that Ricky was OrinGame's biggest shareholder now.

Techking Group had not had enough funds to implement the acquisition before. But they suddenly had enough money overnight. Joshua thought there must be someone helping them behind the scenes.

Joshua did not expect that the one who helped Techking Group was Anaya.

The Maltz Group needed to acquire OrinGame very much. Anaya was not willing to accept Joshua. Now, she even helped others to deal with Joshua!

Joshua was furious. But at the same time, he felt a little upset.

Joshua had tried to go to Anaya's house to find her these days. He wanted a result of what happened that night.

However, Anaya had already made preparations. She had arranged everything around her house and the company. Thus, Joshua had no chance to even see Anaya.

Anaya had rejected Joshua so obviously, which made Joshua very unhappy.

Hearst had already returned to the country, and Joshua's lie might be exposed soon.

Joshua urgently wanted to get Anaya's response. However, so many days had passed, but Anaya didn't even give Joshua a glance.

If Joshua hadn't met Anaya here today, he didn't know when he would be able to see her again.

What made Joshua even more anxious was that Hearst was living next to Anaya's house.

In this case, Hearst and Anaya could meet each other every day.

They might even sleep together intimately at night.

But Joshua was completely excluded and had no chance to even get close to Anaya.

Joshua was annoyed and said in a bad tone, "You haven't seen me for so many days. Have you been planning how to deal with me?

Do you think your tricks can really hurt the Maltz Group?

"To be honest, it will be very difficult for you to defeat the Maltz Group with just the help of the Riven Group!"

Anaya raised the corner of her lips and said, "It's a little difficult.

But it doesn't mean I can't achieve it.

As long as there is a possibility, I will not give up.

Joshua wanted to question Anaya. Was Joshua really that disgusting in Anaya's heart? Did Anaya really want to do anything to fight against Joshua because of that?

However, Joshua did not ask in the end.

The surroundings were filled with people. Although Joshua was angry, his rationality was still there.

Joshua took a deep breath and calmed down a little. Then, he said, "Anaya, I don't have much patience. If you keep having this kind of attitude, I can only make that thing public."

Anaya's eyes turned cold. "If you dare to bear the consequences, try it."

Anaya was currently willing to use this method to deal with Joshua slowly because that matter was still a secret. At the same time, she did not want to be too radical and use the entire Riven Group to fight against the Maltz Group.

But if Joshua touched Anaya's bottom line, Anaya might really go crazy.

Anaya might really do everything to destroy Joshua regardless of the consequences.

Neither Anaya nor Joshua was willing to give in.

Ricky watched from the side as Anaya and Joshua confronted each other. Ricky felt that his palms were

sweating.

The atmosphere was so tense that it seemed like Anaya and Joshua would fight in the next second.

Finally, the elevator door opened.

Ricky breathed a sigh of relief and quickly called Anaya to get into the elevator.

Anaya gave Joshua a final warning look and turned to enter the elevator.

When Anaya turned her head, Joshua noticed a red mark under a knit scarf on her neck.

Joshua's pupils suddenly shrank, and he lifted his hand to pull off Anaya's scarf.

There was a pink kiss mark on Anaya's smooth and fair neck, which was particularly obvious in Joshua's eyes.

Joshua tightened his grip on the scarf, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

Anaya did not expect that Joshua would suddenly make such a rude move and was somewhat displeased.

Give me back my scarf!

Joshua did not return Anaya's scarf to her. His gaze was still fixed on the mark on Anaya's neck. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Joshua gritted his teeth. "He left you a kiss mark. Is he deliberately provoking me?"

Anaya realized what Joshua was referring to but did not answer his question.

Anaya saw the mark on her neck in the mirror early.

Hearst needed to be at ease in this way, so Anaya did not refuse.

Anaya did not hide the kiss mark deliberately. She only wore a scarf when she was outside. Firstly, it was to

keep herself warm. Secondly, it was to prevent Anaya's business partners from thinking that she was frivolous

and unreliable.

Anaya raised her hand and said in a cold tone, "Give me back my scarf.

"Mr. Maltz, if you don't want to be embarrassed here, don't provoke me."

Joshua's eyes were dark and gloomy.

Joshua wished that he could personally cover that kiss mark on Anaya's neck.

However, Joshua knew that he could not do so.

Anaya would never allow Joshua to do that. Even if Joshua wanted to force it, he would not be able to achieve

it when Anaya was in a clear-headed state.

Seeing that Joshua did not speak, Anaya reached out and directly snatched the scarf from Joshua's hand.

Then, she put it on her neck and entered the elevator.

Joshua did not move even after the elevator door closed. He just stood there blankly.
